A screenshot of a completed 6-day run's end-of-game scores screen.
A 6-day run is a play-through of Pikmin in which the player collects every part of the S.S. Dolphin in the minimum number of days possible, which is six. Few players are able to do this, as it is very difficult and requires extreme skill in managing the Pikmin. Many tricks are used in this run to help the players collect the parts faster, or in a different order. There are no limits on Pikmin deaths. It is possible to perform this run in conjunction with a zero-death run.
